Campião, A. S., & Puglisi, M. L. (2026, January 30). TEORIA BASEADA NO USO & PROCESSADOR GESTALT DA LINGUAGEM: REVISÃO DE ESCOPO PARA UMA ABORDAGEM INTEGRADA DO DESENVOLVIMENTO DA LINGUAGEM. https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/U2KFV


## OVERVIEW
This repository contains supplementary materials for the scoping review:
"USAGE-BASED THEORY AND THE GESTALT LANGUAGE PROCESSOR:AN INTEGRATIVE PERSPECTIVE ON LANGUAGE PROCESSING"

## FILES IN THIS PACKAGE

### 1. `Search strategy.pdf`
- Content: Complete search documentation
- Includes:
  - PCC (Population: children with typical development/autism; Concept: UBT/GLP theories)
  - Exact search strings used in each database (PubMed, Scopus, etc.)
  - Filters and inclusio criteria (language, publication dates, study types)
  - Dates when each database was searched
  - Database/platform versions when applicable

### 2. `screening_summary.csv`
- Content: Aggregated screening statistics
- Includes:
  - PRISMA-style flow of records
  - Summary counts: 12,104 identified → 43 included studies
  - Breakdown by screening stage
- Note: Due to high volume of records, this is an aggregated log rather than itemized list

### 3. `Screening log.xlsx`
- Content: Detailed screening decisions
- Includes: 
  - Complete list of the 43 included studies with metadata

### 4. `Extraction sheet.xlsx`
- Content: Complete data extraction and coding
- Includes:
  - All variables extracted from the 43 included studies
  - Coded data for analysis
  - Type of pubçication, Year/Country/Language, Theory (GLP/UBT)
  
## HOW TO REPRODUCE THE REVIEW'S FINDINGS

### Step 1: Verify screening counts
1. Open `screening_log.csv`
2. Confirm final count: 43 included studies
3. Breakdown: 20 from databases + 23 from other sources

### Step 2: Identify included studies
1. The included studies are listed within `screening_log.csv`
2. Complete data for each study is in `extraction_sheet.xlsx`

### Step 3: Recreate analyses
1. Use `extraction_sheet.xlsx` as your primary dataset
2. Apply the criteria in `exclusion_criteria.txt` to verify inclusions
3. Results should match those reported in the published review

## COLUMN DEFINITIONS (extraction_sheet.xlsx)

### Basic Information
_ id:  Unique identifier (S01-S43)
- Title	
-Authors: Author names in original format
-Country/Language

### Theoretical Framework
- `primary_theory`: "UBT", "GLP", or "NA: Not applicable"


### Study type
The `study_type` column uses these 4 standardized categories:

1. Empirical - Original research with collected data (quantitative, qualitative, or mixed)
2. Theoretical - Conceptual papers, theoretical essays, framework discussions
3. Review - Literature reviews, scoping reviews, systematic reviews, narrative reviews
4. Case study - In-depth analysis of individual cases or small samples

Coding rules applied:
- "Empirical study" → Empirical
- "theoretical paper" → Theoretical
- "literature review", "Scope review", "Review Article", "Sistematic review" → Review
- "book chapter" → Categorized based on content (most were Theoretical)
- "Article" → Categorized based on content (most were Empirical)
- "letter to the editor", "Guide", "Point of view" → Theoretical (as they present conceptual perspectives)

## METHODOLOGICAL NOTES
- Screening: Performed by the author and revied by na assistent using Rayyan
- Volume handling: Due to high volume (12,104 records), screening log is aggregated rather than itemized
- Decision consistency: All decisions based on pre-specified criteria in `exclusion_criteria.txt`
- Conflict resolution: The authors have no competing interests to declare.
